Ford changed to the nylon teeth on aluminum hub in March 1965.

=20

This change will be in the B19KC 260 engines and all the Mk II engines.

=20

Those nylon teeth cam gears will fail and leave you stranded so change =
them when you see them on any engine.

Hello

Jim Armstrong here. When i had my 260 rebuilt about 6/7 years ago, here =
are the items I changed to:

Edelbrock F4B, Holley 465, Comp Cam,  and Pertornix ignitiion. Runs =
perfectly and looks stock. And its ever so much quicker than it was !

Oh by the way, change the cam chain gear to solid metal from  the nylon =
teeth on aluminum hub !!!

Hey,

I will be rebuilding my engine soon (original 260, no modifications) and =
I
want to use a new carburetor. The original owner had a Holley 650cfm on =
it
and I understand that something smaller will work better.

So which is a better solution, a Holley 1848 (465cfm) or an Edelbrock =
1403
(500cfm).

Is anybody using a FiTech system? I have a friend who is using the =
FiTech
Go EFI 4 on his old truck and he swears by it.

Thanks,
Joe Brown
